Abstract

Bouldering and climbing motion analysis are increasingly attracting interest in scientific research. Although there is a number of studies dealing with climbing motion analysis, there is no comprehensive survey that exhaustively contemplates sensor technologies, approaches for motion capture and algorithms for the analysis of climbing motions. To promote further advances in this field of research, there is an urgent need to unite available information from different perspectives, such as from a sensory, analytical and application-specific point of view. Therefore, this survey conveys a general understanding of available technologies, algorithms and open questions in the field of climbing motion analysis. The survey is not only aimed at researchers with technical background, but also addresses sports scientists and emphasises the use and advantages of vision-based approaches for climbing motion analysis.
